Clippers Nipped by Excelsiors, 4-3
New York registered a win at Excelsior Grounds by beating the Cleveland Clippers, 4-3. Pitcher Eddie Montague was one reason why the Excelsiors triumphed. Yes, it was a win for New York; but their 23-44 record is still nothing to boast about.

Making an impact for the home team was Jonathan Coddington. In the bottom of the fifth, the 24-year old center fielder had a run-scoring ground out. That made the score 4-2, Excelsiors.

Montague attributed the win to his team's "collective resolve."
